depends on the router. If it's a high end router, you'd need a manual to do it since there are so many steps. If it's a Netgear or Linksys for home use, I think you'd need to find a firewall program that allows you to open and close individual ports. If I recall correctly, Tiny Personal Firewall allows you to do this.
